Sheriff ‘Disgusted’: Vengeful Nanny Allegedly Steals Family Dog and Sets It Loose After Being Fired

Schultz was found at a hotel in the area, but when detectives found her she was alone and said she had not taken Lady. Despite her claim, hotel staff told authorities they’d seen Schultz with the dog earlier.
